Official Introduction

This methodology, developed by Levent Bulut, represents a radical departure from subjective literary traditions toward a disciplined, physical model of storytelling known as Narrative Engineering.

The Core Manifesto

For decades, literature has been trapped in the fog of subjective adjectives and abstract emotions. Writers have tried to describe feelings instead of constructing the physical reality that triggers them.

Objective Projection (Nesnel İzdüşüm) is a systematic writing discipline that treats a narrative as a physical laboratory. It evolves T.S. Eliot’s “Objective Correlative” into a rigorous framework anchored in the laws of physics—Thermodynamics, Acoustics, and Optics.

Key Principles of the Methodology

• The Adjective Embargo: Subjective adjectives are prohibited. The text must rely on measurable physical data.
• Biological Triggering: By providing precise physical coordinates (contraction of skin, change in light density, timing of sound), the narrative triggers a biological emotional response in the reader without using emotional words.
• Narrative Physics: Every scene is constructed as an energy transfer, ensuring universal replicability across different cultures and languages.

Academic Resources

The full theoretical framework, including comparative analyses and the “Narrative Constitution,” has been published for academic peer review.
